What's new with Engine Rewards?
We've simplified the program to make your rewards easier to understand and use.
-
Clearer value: we moved from inflated points per dollar to a simple 1–5% back model. Points are fewer, but worth significantly more, with a fixed, transparent dollar value.
-
New ways to redeem: you can use your rewards for future travel, apply them as statement credits, or redeem them for digital gift cards.
-
Designed for teams: the program supports company-wide and individual employee rewards, including the ability to transfer points between balances.
-
More tiers: four tiers — Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond — with advancement based on your annual spend.

If you are granted a refund for a cancelled booking, points will not be granted.
Redeeming Rewards

Can I use my points for cash back?

Your Rewards Account
How do I enroll?
Your business is not automatically enrolled. An account admin must enroll the company in Engine Rewards. Once your admin enrolls, rewards earning is activated for the entire account — no additional forms required.
How do I check my rewards balance and tier status?
You can check your points balance by tapping “Rewards” on the mobile app, or by clicking your initials in the top right and selecting “Rewards” on the website. This page shows your current tier status, available points, and progress to the next tier.
Do my points expire?
Your points expire after a full calendar year of inactivity on the account. To keep your account active and your points safe, you must book and complete a booking within one year.
Can I share my points with another member?
Yes. You can transfer points directly to another team member within your company. Admins can transfer company-level points to employees, and employees can send points to coworkers when enabled by their admin.
